What month is it???

I thought it was almost May.....so what is with the stupid white stuff on the ground???  ggggrrrrr

1 week down, 1 to go

So daddy has been gone for a week now....and although very busy(with lots of help for the fam and friends!!--thank you), we are still doing ok...No major breakdowns yet (by me that is--lol)
last night was close though--I am pretty sure lil miss Kyndal has colic--ugh from like 4-8 is her cry time--I hope she stops soon!!

she sleeps FINALLY at 9pm last night--all swaddeled up--BUT she slept till 6 this morning!!!

Cupcake of a different color

I got it.....these taste very yummy!!! I think it can be used as a base batter--I will be experimenting for sure!!!

I divided the batter and mixed in some color



yumminess!!



There has been a homicide...

I found her in the yard by the fence....

her poor little fingers are no more....

#1 suspect

you really can't trust a face this cute!!!

What are those children doing in the window???

Killing flies with my knitting needles of course.....and they actually succeeded--LOL soon after those same needles became Harry Potter wands!!! (seriously never ever a dull moment around here)

Bye Bye Dad

Well Ian is off to North Dakota for 2 weeks......Let the craziness begin--LOL
I snapped his pic and he is like seriously why are you taking a picture?? I go "duh for my blog" he rolled his eyes (he has no idea my fabulous readers need to know these things!!!)

I think she is sad dad is leaving!! She is going to change so much in 2 week!!

Did I forget anything???

pretty tulips at the airport

Cupcake-FAIL!!

So this time a year I LOVE LOVE peeps (who doesn't right??)....and lately I am obsessed with making awesome cupcakes (all these blogs I have makes me think--I can do that) and in hopes to open a cute cupcake bakery--Sure I can in all my spare time (ok ok too many cake boss and cupcake wars shows!!)  So what would be better than a peep flavored cupcake??

SO I mixed the batter and made it purple

lined up my peeps

cut them up and mixed them in

FAIL!!!  ok ok i know marshmellows are gonna melt away in the over BUT i have to try it!!!

So next I found a marshmellow buttercreme frosting recipe--maybe I will try that on Chocolate cupcakes tomorrow!!!

10 weeks

already.......she is changing everyday, she is really (finally) starting to chub up. She is really watching everything (focusing more), her hands and legs are a moving when she is laying on the floor, she wants to coo--she is almost there, every now and then a coo slips out--lol, she is staying awake more during the day and sleeping more at night!!!
